Binance Coin in a Sideways Move, Trades Marginally Above the $500 Support

For the past week, the price movement has remained the same as the market continued to fluctuate between $480 and $600. The bottom line is that the BNB uptrend has been interrupted at the $643 resistance level. The first uptrend was resisted on April 12 as the altcoin pulled back and resumed a sideways move.

The second upward move was repelled as the altcoin formed a bearish double top pattern. This is a bearish reversal signal which can cause Binance Coin to fall on the downside. Today, buyers are still pushing on the upside as price retests the overhead resistance. BNB will risk deeper correction if it fails to breach the resistance at $643. The altcoin price can plunge to $300 low. Conversely, BNB will rally above $800 if the current resistance is breached.
